What transmission do I have?

[farmtruckman]

I have a mystery. On my 67 F100 LWB, I have a FE motor with a 3 speed trans with a 14 bolt pan. Trying to find a filter/gasket and having no luck. It doesn't fit the bolt pattern of a C4 or C6 or a Cruisomatic/FMX. Truck is completely stock. Any suggestions, at the local Shucks and Autozone, the filter is similar for an FMX but lacks a hole in the filter, (this one has two at opposite ends, and the gaskets are wrong pattern. I am really thrown on this one. Anyone know what model it might be?

mx not a fmx but a mx. they are slightly different. here is the transpan id page to show for sure what yuo have. http://www.fordification.com/autoID.htm there is another page that shows just the pans but i am unsure where to find it right now.

fordman, thanks for the info. According to your link, I have a "medium case" Cruisomatic. Now the real question is, do you have any idea where to find the filter/gasket kit? Even LMC doesn't list it. I will try Ford after the holiday.


Thanks again.

i have no idea where exactly. if the parts stores cant get them then i would start looking at all the vendors web sites. someone has to be able to get them. i know you can make a cork gasket for it. but the filter i dont know. maybe the old type of parts stores. like napa or greenlight or carquest.

Thanks Fordman,

Thought I would hit the Ford dealer in the AM. Meanwhile, I can always cut a new gasket out of a sheet. Can solvent wash filter and reuse, even though new is nicer. Went on the web and couldn't find much.

Thanks again for the quick response. Happy New Year

have you checked rockauto.com? Is a 352 an FE? If so, they've got a filter kit that looks like what you're describing. It's under Ford->1967->F100 Pickup->5.8l 352 cid->Automatic Transmission.

Farmtruckman, have you tried NAPA? If they can't find it tell them to look in the filter book not the computer.
